Hey there!
What's going on guys?!
A few weeks back, I created a video that featured 5 small Minecraft mods that were just sort
of fun to play around with.
Well, I actually have had a couple of requests to create videos
featuring more mods for Minecraft 1.12.
Given that a lot of mods haven't officially updated to Minecraft version 1.12, it's
difficult to create a big video featuring like 10 or so mods that I may want to show.
So, I've decided to start uploading one video per week, when possible featuring mods.
This week, I'll be showing 5 useful mods for Minecraft 1.12.
They aren't crazy game-changing mods that add a ton.
Just 5 simple but useful mods that you may like to have.
So, I hope you guys enjoy...
Let's get started!
*Music*
The first mod I want to show you guys today is called JourneyMap.
There are many different Minecraft minimap or map mods that are all useful in their own
right.
I may show some of them in future videos.
However, the reason I wanted to share JourneyMap with you in this video is because JourneyMap
is both a client and server-side mod which maps your
Minecraft world in real time as you explore it.
It allows you to view the map in a web browser, in game as a minimap, or in-game as a full-screen
map.
So, there is actually a lot that this map allows you to do and that's
just the basics of the map.
There are a number of other features that JourneyMap has including waypoints, different
UI themes, and customizable map options, among other
things.
If you're interested in learning more about this mod, there is, of course, a link in the
description to download the mod.
JourneyMap has it's own website that is able to answer many questions you may have and
give you a lot more information about the mod than I am right now.
I definitely recommend JourneyMap if you are looking for a map mod
for a server or even if you are just looking for a map mod for yourself, your own type
of modpack, even some type of single-player, somewhat vanilla since this is a mod.
JourneyMap is fantastic mod that is probably my favorite map mod right now.
The next mod to share with you today is a simple Mod called Mod Name Tooltip.
This mod is perhaps one of the simplest mods out there but it's actually very very useful.
I can almost gaurnuntee that this mod, despite how
simple it is, will make playing with mods a bit easier.
The purpose of this mod is pretty clear and simple.
All this mod does is let you know what mod a particular item in-game
belongs to.
For example, if you're using the IronChests mod and you hover over an Iron Chest in you're
inventory, the mod will tell you that that chest is from the Iron
Chest mod.
Now, mods like Just Enough Items or Not Enough Items may have features similar to this.
However, from time to time, some items will have bugs and not show you that
information or some people prefer not to use those types of mods.
So, this mod is useful in those cases especially.
This mod requires very little to setup and it has absolutley
no bugs due to the simplicity of it.
It's a great, small mod to have that makes things just a little bit easier for you.
You'll come to appreciate it a lot more than you
realize.
The next mod is a mod that I personally use all the time but isn't a mod for everyone.
This mod is great for video creators, like myself.
If you don't have a need to create videos, you can skip to the next mod if you
don't want to learn about this mod but I know that there are other people out there who
will find the mod useful.
For the longest time, I've been using Pixelcam to help create
cinematic shots in videos and before that I was using the Camera Studio mod.
Well, the last update for the Camera Studio mod was
for Minecraft 1.8 and the latest update for the PixelCam mod was for 1.10.2.
While the Pixelcam mod worked in 1.11, it is a bit bugged in 1.12 which forced me to
do some searching for a 1.12 camera mod that I really
like to use.
Luckily, I came acrsoss this mod, CMDCam.
I actually now prefer this mod over Pixelcam.
While it is very much similar, I just feel it is a bit more smooth and simple
to use.
CMDCam allows you to create smooth camera paths, roll rotation, zoom in and out, follow
targets and has an outside mode which allows you to be an actor and camera
at the same time.
For me, this is a must have mod as it allows me to do so much more for videos.
If you create any type of showcase, tutorial, or top 10 type videos, I highly
recommend checking out this mod to help you get some higher quality videos.
Most people know about WAILA, or What Am I Look At.
WAILA allows you to see what you're looking at in Minecraft.
It literally answers the question asked in the name.
It is extremely useful mod to have when playing
in modpacks and allows you to answer a bunch of questions without having to leave the game
and look up some information and just getting frustrated trying to play with mods.
Unfortunately, as of recording this, the mod hasn't updated to 1.12.
BUT there are some alternatives.
That includes the mod called What Is That...
OR WIT.
WIT is a lightweight mod that's similar to WAILA.
It displays information about blocks and entities when you look at them.
You'll be able to see the name of the block or entity and the
mod it's from, the ID, metadata, and unlocalized name, the harvestability info, it indicates
entities with TE, it has contents of inventories that sync with the client, and
it shows extra information added by other mods like the drying rack from Fun Ores.
So, this is a great mod to serve the purpose of
finding out what you are looking at.
Or, as the mod name states, it answers the question "What is That?"
The final mod I'm sharing with you today is Inventory Tweaks.
Now, I know that tons of people already know about this mod but I plan on making other
videos that show you more mods in the future so I'm going to throw in
some popular mods throughout the videos too.
There are some people who are learning about mods and may be unfamiliar so these are
always useful for them too.
Plus, Inventory Tweaks really is one of the more useful mods ever.
Inventory Tweaks allows you to automatically replace your tools as they break,
replace item stacks once their emptied, sort your inventory and chests with a single click,
it provides shortcuts to move around items, and it allows you to customize the
way your inventory is sorted.
This mod save loads of time by sorting your chests and inventory for you so you don't
have to search around for items or spend time organizing
your chests.
Inventory Tweaks is just a great mod to save time from doing some of the more tedious things
in Minecraft.
So that's gonna do it for this one guys.
Thank you so much for watching!
As I said, I have some plans for more videos like this coming up.
People are always looking for mods and I'm happy to share them with you guys!
It gives me a reason to find more mods too while also adding in some more videos to the
channel.
I'll be uploading different types of videos, aside from just Useful mods too.
Like random mods, fun mods, stuff like that.
So I hope you enjoy it.
Please let me know if you have made or know of any mods that you think would be great
for me to show in video.
Whether those are just small mods that add something funny into the game or something
that is really useful and makes Minecraft easier or even a big
mod that changes Minecraft into a different experience altogether.
